Freud Single Flute Straight Bits are built for high-performance routing with unmatched speed and precision. Engineered for high-production work, these bits feature a single flute design that maximizes chip clearance, allowing for faster feed rates and cleaner cuts. Ideal for hardwood, softwood, plywood, and composite materials, they deliver professional results whether used on CNC machines, hand-held routers, or table-mounted setups. Freud's exclusive Black I.C.E. (Industrial Cooling Element) coating keeps the cutting edge cooler while improving chip evacuation, reducing friction, and preventing pitch build-up. Combined with Freud's TiCo Hi-Density Carbide, this bit offers up to twice the life and cutting performance compared to standard uncoated bits. Whether you're routing for cabinetry, signage, or production work, this bit delivers lasting durability and smooth finishes with every pass.
